Blake Lively, skilled chooser of words, offered Marie Claire a touching description of her 15-month-old daughter, James, for the magazine’s July cover story:

Namely, “she has my clammy hands!” Lively, 28, wails. “And my heavy eyelids, my meaty eyelids.” She pivots from self-deprecation to ebullience. “My family: That’s the thing that I feel most protective of and the thing that I feel is the most exposed when I feel exploited.”

For someone so protective of her family, you’d think Lively would have at least noticed that her baby was replaced in the night by a common tree frog wearing a Vivienne Westwood romper.
